Jul 1, 2026 · 2 min

With a 44-40 record and a league-leading 51 close games decided by two runs or fewer, the Guardians’ offense struggles to consistently deliver, and unforced errors are becoming too frequent. This is part of their rebuilding process — tough to watch, but necessary as they develop a future-ready roster.
